  • NEW ZEALAND NOTES·, 1954-5 by DAVID HALL
    • NEW ZEALAND NOTES, 1954-5 39 1 . NEW ZEALAND NOTES·, 1954-5 By DAVID HALL HE last climbing season was notable for two things : first, the early disappearance of snow providing in early January conditions which might have been expected six weeks later ; second, the high death roll in accidents. A consequence of the lack of snow was that much rock was exposed which would have been concealed at a normal Christmas season and many slopes were uncompromisingly hard ice which would normally · have been steep, firm snow; everyone in fact had to work fairly hard for the climbs they did. But some very good climbs were done. The existence (or should one say the ' invention ') of new ten­ thousanders must be a perpetual menace to the peace of mind of those few choice spirits who have achieved what they hoped was an unfading garland with the ascent of all the peaks in New Zealand over 1o,ooo ft. However, Mount ' Magellan ' is not positively claimed as definitely 1o,ooo ft., although it must closely approximate to it. (Throughout these notes names cited in inverted commas have yet to receive the approval of the Geographic Board.) ' Magellan ' lies on the Balfour Range spur of Mount Teichelmann, and its first ascent was made in February by Guide Harry Ayres with B. S. Gillies and Sir Edmund Hillary and D. G. Herron; the two parties climbed some of the day on one rope. They ieft the Haast Hut at 2 A.M., were· at the summit of Teichelmann by way of Clarke Saddle by 10.45 A.M., reached their objective, after traversing a long teetery crest of snow interrupted by a formidable rock tower, at 4 P.M., and returned to the Haast Hut by the route of ascent twenty-four hours after setting forth.

Carey Department of Geological Sciences and Byrd Polar Research Center, Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, USA D. Murray Hicks NIWA Research, Christchurch, New Zealand Carmen A. Nezat1 Byrd Polar Research Center, Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, USA Received 3 September 2003; revised 14 September 2004; accepted 30 November 2004; published 15 February 2005. [1] We have determined the chemical erosion yields for fifteen watersheds in New Zealand, ranging in size from 12.2 to 2928 km2. These rates, coupled with previously measured physical erosion yields, allow us to compare these two modes of landscape denudation. The physical erosion yields are some of the highest measured in the world. Although in most instances the chemical erosion yields are only a small fraction of the total erosion yields, the absolute values are very high. Our data strongly support the notion that chemical erosion rates are greatly influenced by the yield of physical erosion and that the rapid production of fresh surfaces as a result of high physical erosion rates and subsequent denudation is critical to the high chemical erosion yields observed.

  • PART ONE This Management Plan
    F I S H AND GAME NEW ZEALAND WEST COAST REGION SPORTS FISH AND GAME MANAGEMENT PLAN To manage, maintain and enhance the sports fish and game resource in the recreational interests of anglers and hunters AIRPORT DRIVE PO BOX 179 HOKITIKA 1 2 FOREWORD FROM THE CHAIRMAN I am pleased to present the Sportsfish and Game Management Plan for the West Coast Fish and Game Council. This plan has been prepared in line with the statutory responsibilities of Fish and Game West Coast following extensive consultation with a wide range of stakeholders. It identifies issues and establishes goals, objectives, and implementation methods for all output classes. While it provides an excellent snapshot-in-time of Fish and Game West Coast it should be noted that, as well as ongoing issues, there are likely to be further challenges in the future which will have the potential to impact on angler/hunter opportunities and satisfaction. To this extent, this plan must be seen as a document designed to be capable of addressing changing requirements by way of the annual workplan and in response to ongoing input from anglers and hunters, as well as other users of fish and game habitat. The West Coast Fish and Game Council welcomes such input.

Part of Arthur’s Pass National Park is located within this Place (see Map 16). Hokitika is split in two both geologically and ecologically by the Alpine Fault, which lies about 20 km west of the crest of the Main Divide. East of the fault, the schist mountains and valleys are rugged and broken, and a large portion is protected as public conservation land. West of the fault the geology is more complex, landscapes extensively modified and public conservation lands fragmented. This Place is the historic heart of the West Coast Te Tai o Poutini ’s pounamu trade and is the scene of gold mining, forestry and farming industries - particularly dairying.
